What We Think
Condition: Used, Excellent
SP Luthier Notes: The hardware was polished. Some of the frets were polished and made to be level with the other frets. The frets needed polishing, and were polished. No further work was needed.

Manufacturer's Description from Other
My goal in designing this guitar was to create an instrument with the blended voice of a resonator and the sweet, rich fullness of an acoustic. Play it with a slide, pick or fingerstyle, you will be amazed with its versatility. The top, arched back, sides and neck are constructed of solid tonewoods. The triple-hand-spun Beard Legend™ Cone & Original #14™ Spider Bridge are the finest available. The cover plate and external external hardware are plated brass. The optional Fishman Spider Bridge Pickup installation allows very accurate amplification.
